What is the CST ?
The CST is an association of professionals from the audiovisual field, in charge of supervising the quality of the production and broadcast of sound and images, whether they are intended for cinema, television or any other medium.
The CST’s missions are closely linked to the progress of sound and image techniques, as witnessed by the evolution of the association’s role. The CST was founded in 1944 to take part in the reconstruction of French cinema and to encourage the evolution from black and white to colour films.
Currently, the CST is involved in the transition of cinema and television towards digital technology and in the introduction of new media such as video on demand (VOD).
